Standford University scientists are testing a groundbreaking device on Stephen Hawking to allow him to communicate through brain waves and they have likened the project to ‘hacking into his brain.’ Hawking has been working with the scientists who are developing the iBrain - a tool that picks up brain waves and communicates them via a computer. The scientist, who has motor neurone disease and lost the power of speech nearly 30 years ago, currently uses a computer to communicate but is losing the ability as the condition worsens.
